Presentazione generale
Bend and Central Oregon
Outdoor city, river and volcanic landscapes east of the Cascades.
To understand what Bend and Central Oregon are, you need to look at Newberry National Volcanic Monument, Deschutes River Trail and High Desert Museum. These places give us a view of a territory marked by urban life, riverscapes, volcanic landscapes and natural spaces and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Place indismissible
Newberry National Volcanic Monument
Newberry National Volcanic Monument gathers flows of obsidian, cones, crater lakes and lava caves around a vast volcano in the centre of Oregon. The visit makes the volcanoism very concrete: you walk on black glass, you walk along lava fields and you see how the forest takes place.
Nature and panorama
Deschutes River Trail
The Deschutes River Trail follows the water as close as possible, between ponderosa pines, basalt cliffs and rapids that pass through Bend Depending on the chosen stretch, the walk becomes an urban walk, a running out or a quieter walk towards the dry gorges of the centre of Oregon.
Culture and heritage
High Desert Museum
The High Desert Museum tells the high desert of Oregon by living animals, exhibitions on indigenous peoples, the history of pioneers and natural environments. Outdoor spaces, raptors and re-enactments make the visit particularly useful before you go through dry landscapes around Bend.
Nature and panorama
Pilot Butte
Pilot Butte is an ancient volcanic cone placed in the heart of Bend, which gives a natural lookout on the city and the Cascades. The climb is made on foot or according to the season by road, with at the top a circular panorama towards the Three Sisters, Broken Top and the central desert.
